"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

I have to say I don't get tons of dates per week like some people claim. In fact, I would say I get at the most 5 dates a year.

But, I think my excuse has to do with the fact I live in a more suburban area where it's full of married people with families and retirees. Finding an unattached woman around here is rare, most have at least boyfriends. So I tend to go out of my location to meet women, but they discover I live far, so that's kind of a deal breaker with them, too.

BUt...when I DO get dates, they are pretty much very attractive women. (at least in my eyes), so it's still assuring that I land some attractive and intelligent women and it can last a good while.

I just wish my frequency of meeting UNattached single women would go up higher. I cannot approach a woman in a bookstore without seeing her boyfriend show up around the corner or see a ring on her finger.

Short of going in online dating and speed dating, which I don't care too much for as the odds are stacked against the men...esp. with online dating.

Think it's the geography? Someone told me there ARE single women where I live, true, but they look like someone you'd meet at a Truck Stop rest area/bar...late night at the Wal-Mart. lol

Anyone else in a situation like this where your frequency in which you meet available women are few and far between?
 

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
